I'm at the Sheraton LAX Gateway right now on a $31 Priceline stay.

I called the front desk yesterday to ask that my Starwood Gold number be added to my record (as I usually do on Priceline stays). The agent knew her stuff. She said she would be glad to and mentioned I'd be entitled to all ammenities and also points for incidentals. She reminded me of no points on the base room stay.

She also noted my request for non-smoking and early check-in. Something that Priceline Run-of-House rules do not permit.

When I arrived, I found I was preassigned an upgraded Suite on the 14th floor!

Sounds like you were assisted by the type of knowledgeable, friendly and efficient service worker (hotel, airline, fast food, consulting, whatever industry) that we all dream of.

I thought Priceline's policy was that all rooms are non-smoking?
